Its a question of standards. Postgres works at trying to comply with 
SQL standards - which means that migration to other standards 
compliant databases is easier - but then django masks all that. 
Secondly postgres is ACID compliant - but then django doesnt do 
ACID, so is now not suitable for mission critical applications. But 
when it does, i feel postgres would be the way to go.
